I'm back of MFP, maintained 26 pound loss since last year at this time. Working out and logging starts again. Goal is 18 pounds this year to get down to 150. I keep hearing that people wish they started sooner after they have lost their weight. I turned 40 and I want to continue to make healthier choices and be more confident in my appearance. Let's bring on 2021!1

Back to reality...I was on a pretty good roll and now...my roll is growing again...haha!! I know after a week I'll be back to normal, just too much carbs and booze. Hope everyone had an amazing holiday. Clearly mine was pretty good!!!2

Still to much yummy food about but as long as I only put on a couple of pounds then I know now I CAN lose it so just going with the flow.2

Hi! I'm 36 and ultimately aiming to lose 4 stone (56lbs) but taking it 1 stone at a time and reassessing at each milestone. Planning on improving my diet, water intake and walking a lot more at first and then introducing more exercise as time goes on, that I can fit in around chasing after an 18 month old and working full time.1

You can do this. Taking it in stages (a stone at a time is very sensible). What you described is pretty much what I did. No fancy diets for me. Just watched what I ate, and eating healthier choices and I walked daily....Good luck on your journey.

130 pounds is so impressive. Well done. You must feel so much healthier.

Woohoo! Nice to see so many kindred spirits in here! I was on MFP for a long time then left and gained everything back. Trying again now. I'm 41 and trying to lose in 10lb increments.3

Wow.. absolutely amazing 👏0 -
After what seems like an age away from here I am back again. Knee is knackered, though the doc's cannot give me a definite answer, possible arthritis, damage to the posterior horn, torn ligament on inside of the knee, cartilage damaged etc etc, MRI says one thing, X-rays say another..so painkillers and a limited exercise regime until I know more.
Not getting me down, not beating me, I am going through it regardless of the pain. It isn't beating me, not while I can still breath.4 -
Wish 2021 will be better. Stay safe you all. We're in lockdown......no gym, no hairdresser.....don't know which one I miss the most 😂 Let's keep on going strong 👊👊2

Hope everyone had a good Christmas 💕🎄1

#nea2702 - that's the best way to do it, good advice! I have found it less stressful not to diet but just to reduce portion size, eat what I want and tweak with exercise.0

Hey, y'all. Haven't checked in here for awhile. Good to see that you are all staying active. Fractured my hand back in October, so took a gym break. Time to get back at it. Kept up the walking, so managed a minimal weight gain.
I'm a member of an MFP group called "Lose 1 Pound a Week". Great support, different challenges every week and a weekly weigh-in. It helps me stay on track. They're signing up new members right now. Please join us if you like that sort of thing.
